Purgatorying
Entertain me for the tenth hour in a row againAnesthetize me with your gossip and many random anecdotesAnd fill every hour with activity or ear candyDrop me off at intersections in any city metropolitan
And keep me in this stateAnd keep me purgatoryingAnd sing me back to sleepThis is far more than I had bargained for
Start every week with a break-neck urgent designAnd end every speed day with my briefcase representing free timeSpending my fruits my purchases become my lifelinePlease give my love to my familyI'll doubtfully be home at Christmas time
Don't disturb me in this statePlease leave me purgatoryingI'll be damned if I'm to wakeThis is far more than I am equipped for
I've held you up like a deityLike you're the sole owner of wingsThis unrequited tunnel visionAnd I wonder why I've not been writing
Please keep me in this statePlease keep me purgatoryingPlease rock me back to sleepThis love is more than - than I have bargained for
I'll be damned if I'm to wakeThis is far more than I'm equipped for
